Welcome to Transactionland - we’re open for a bit of browsing and a spot of shoplifting alongside a packed programme of events and workshops. All events are free! We’d love to see you. Find us at 11 Centre Mall, Cleveland Centre, Middlesbrough, TS1 2NR

Transactionland is a response to a collective fear of talking about the economy - both ‘The Economy’, and the many other economies small and large we interact with every day. It aims to be a brave space for exploring alternatives and having some irreverent fun with Very Serious Stuff. 

Transactionland takes a firmly No Stupid Questions approach. This is a DIT (do it together) space. We are not experts. 

Please remember that this is all an experiment. Ask questions, be patient, let us know what you think.

How to use this shop:

• Come in for a browse, stay for a free tea or coffee from our one of a kind hot drinks checkout.

• 12.30-1.30pm on Sunday 27th September and Friday 2nd October is doughnut hour! Join us to eat doughnuts and learn about the economy.

• Interested in something from our exclusive shoplifting range? It’s Shoplift-o-clock! Attempt to sneak something into your pockets without being caught by our eagle-eyed shopkeepers.

• Make your own cash, have a Big Economics Chat with a stranger (we’re all learning together), try your luck on the stock [cube] exchange, hang out, read. That kind of thing.
